    i bought the H510s and i've been using them for 6 months now and the pleather has been flaking off and it seems im not the only one with this longevity issue. In addition the usb cable with the inline controls have also stopped working in just 6 months could just be my luck but i've also seen similar reports on reddit and under the amazon reviews. Just something to keep in mind when considering this headset please do thorough research before purchasing and remember that a detailed longevity test could save you some money.
    PS Techne you should use some products for a month or two and see if your opinions about them change over that time it'll be greatly appreciated and you'll be helping a lot of folks out.

      @Diego Mejia Just remember, The USB Connector of the H510 is shit and its hard to find a replacement for it. Mine broke after 6-7 months and im stuck using the 3mm jack. Great headset overall. You can easily buy replacement ear pads incase the leather breaks. Bought one for like 3 bucks lmao

      I have my 510s for over a year and started flaking a little bit now, a friend of mine started flaking before mine even though mine are 2 or 3 months older than his. They still sound the same, the mic is one of the best i've heard so far because most of the gaming headsets mic sounds as if you were the captain of an airplane.

    See H510 and H520 mics are sooo good! Seems like he didn't switch mics in the mic test (7:40) , I thought he just lower the volume. Best sounding headset mic in a headset. Even compared to those 100-200$ premium gaming headsets with mic that sounds like talking to a phone call. Watching this video with my H510 btw (which his video convinced me to get one). Awesome!

  • @TrekBuilder
    @TrekBuilder 3 роки тому

    My impressions watching this video is that I don't feel compared to the Redragon Zeus headset, I feel this is a step back in some ways. I own both styles of the Zeus 510's, and the biggest missed opportunity on these is not having a detachable cable. Or, if you are going to have a fixed cable, then I think ALL gaming headsets with 3.5mm should by default have a 90 degree connector. This is a must for controllers. If the cable isn't detachable, then I wont even consider a headset without this. It is only a practical choice. By the way though, great video as always.

      I would stick with the HyperX. From my own experience with RedDragon products, they are cheap for a reason. Their reliability after some use is questionable, if you are able to afford the HyperX, I would go with them all day long. If not then go with the RedDragon and hopefully a few months from now, the product can still hold up.
